The Mercedes CLK-Class is a line of coupes and convertibles beautiful to behold and a joy to drive. They are comfortable and luxurious. No one truly needs more power than the smooth, highly efficient 3.2-liter V6 that comes in the CLK320 models, however. And for most of us the powerful 4.3-liter V8 found in the CLK430 is more than plenty. If there is a flaw in the CLK-Class, it is that it does everything so well, it may seem to lack character. Fat chance, with the CLK55 AMG. It does the high-performance thing so well, and with such style. Trust us, this car has character. Sam Moses contributed to this report.
